Chapter 12

After a while Alisa took over the wheel so Rosie could have a rest. The visit to the old Red Room base took a lot out of her more mentally than physically. Within minutes Rosie was asleep against the window so Alisa focused on driving and not pressing something that may blow up the whole car. After about an hour Alisa stopped for petrol before hopping back into the car only to hear Rosie muttering beside her. Trying her best to ignore her she started to drive again. She hadn't driven far when Rosie's muttering got louder until it blew into full out screaming. Rosie sat up properly in her seat hand over mouth.

"Pull over," she spluttered. Alisa stared at her with narrow eyes.

"What?" Alisa asked. Rosie didn't seem to hear her though

"J.A.R.V.I.S. pull over now!" Rosie demanded. Suddenly the car went out of control and sped over to the side. Almost immediately Rosie jumped out the car and away from the car to be sick. Alisa grabbed a bottle of water from the back of the car before running out and handing it to her once she'd finished throwing up. Rosie squirted it into her mouth before spitting out the water and repeating.

"Care to tell me what that was about?" Alisa raised an eyebrow.

"You remember how Logan said my scent smelled of coffee?" Rosie asked between gurgles of water to which Alisa nodded, "Why do you think that is? When you've seen everything that I've seen having a good night sleep is very rare coffee gets me through. See what you've got to look forward to after being a S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent for nine years. I swear next time I come to Russia I'm going to be dragged kicking and screaming. I'll drive." With that Rosie stormed back to the car leaving Alisa staring after her after realisation hitting her. She said she'd been an Agent for nine years but she was only twenty two she must have joined S.H.I.E.L.D. when she was thirteen! What kind of crazy crap was going through Fury's head when he let her join!? Shaking her head she hopped back into the car which sped off as soon as they closed the door.

They arrived in Sochi a couple of hours later just as the sun was thinking of setting. After finding a cheap looing hotel Rosie pulled up into the car park. Both girls got out the car before Rosie chucked the keys at Alisa. Alisa caught them easily before looking down at them confused.

"Go inside and book us a room I'll go scout for that ally Clint was talking about. I'll be back in an hour and if I'm not back by sundown I'm either dead or captured. If I'm not back take the car and get back to your safe house. If I'm captured I'll try and contact you if I'm dead promise me you'll go back and tell Fury everything," Rosie explained.

"Promise," Alisa nodded. Rosie smiled before taking some guns out the boot and hiding them on her person. She went to walk away before turning back to her.

"Two more things. One I think we were being followed but I'm not too sure and two don't let anyone else get their hands on my car." Rosie winked before running off. Alisa scoffed before locking Rosie most prized possession (or so it seemed her most prized) before heading into the hotel. The whole way up to the reception desk she could fell someone watching her but when she looked behind there was no one there. Scowling she got a room before telling the woman to look out of "her friend" like she could actually say 'oh by the way can you look out for Rosie Stark she might pop in soon send her up to my room thanks!' yeah that would go well. With the room key in hand she walked up to the room making sure to lock the door behind her.
